“We don’t have genes for reading. It’s an activity we invented, and by doing it, we show that our brain has the capacity to go beyond itself, to take all these circuits that were created for oral language or vision, and do something entirely different with them — deduction, critical analysis, imagination, contemplation.”

Dr. Maryanne Wolfauthor of “Proust and the Squid: The Story and Science of the Reading Brain”
